Kid Friendly Wedding Favours

We've already picked out what our wedding favours are going to be. We opted to go for something practical and worth consuming rather than giving everyone a useless trinket (which most people already have enough of). However it has just dawned on me that maybe we should be providing a more kids friendly one for the kids. I'm sure some would like the ones the adults would get, but I'm not sure about the really young ones. We will have about 15 kids at the reception which range from less than a year old (including one in the oven! and no we are not counting him on the guestlist =P) to about 11 years old. I'm not sure if we should give the little ones something they would like more...like gummybears? I'd prefer not to give a toy just because kids always want to try out their new toy as soon as they get it, which isn't always the best idea at a wedding reception. On the other hand, would kids feel more happy getting something that the adults got? Some kids are all about being a big boy/girl.

Aside from favours, I'm wondering if we should also prepare a goodybag for the kids. Receptions are long and boring for kids so maybe they would want to colour or something. I'm not sure...I'm not really good with kids. I would actually prefer if people kept their kids at home but the mention of an adults-only reception had some of my family members pretty peeved. I don't see why people take not having their kids invited to an adults event so personally, but bleh. What peeves me is people who don't watch their kids and allow them to act like spoiled brats. I really hope I don't have any distasteful kid moments at the reception.

Man, two bitch posts in a row. I should follow up with something more pleasant. o_O
